  • Tom Hanks Gifts Typewriter To A Fan
Actor Tom Hanks has gifted a typewriter to a fan who drew sketches of him.
 
The actor surprised Denise Esposito with a gift on Wednesday, reports dailymail.co.uk. 
 
Hanks included a personal note to the artist, which read: "For your lovely book of sketches of -- all -- those movies... Here is a typewriter to do with whatever you need... Make more art! And many thanks. Tom Hanks."
 
Esposito told the website LAist she met the "Sully" actor -- who received the Presidential Medal of Freedom at the White House earlier this week -- at the Rome Film Festival in October. 
 
She had managed to present his publicist with a sketchbook she put together depicting him in his movies. 
 
In September, the actor crashed a wedding in Central Park, New York, while out jogging and posed for selfies with the happy couple. Also, in 2012, a set of photographs emerged showing Hanks posing with a fan who was pretending to be passed out drunk in a North Dakota restaurant.
